Can’t See Straight

by Joyce on Feb.25, 2010

Wow my posts have been coming in huge gaps, I apologize for this. As a consequence my weekend bangers list just keeps growing so consider this the ultimate getting-back-on-track week.

It’ll be filled with knockouts; as usual.

Yeasayer is here with their brand new video for the song Ambling Alp. Love love love them! First time I heard them was way back in April when Annie posted the song Tight Rope on a previous post. The video is definitely a must watch and that’s why I’m featuring it here. Very interesting video but I think it’s fitting.

Good news Ottawa! Woodhands is coming on April 8th at Mavericks! Saw these guys back at the blues fest and it’ll definitely be worth it.
Woodhands – I Can’t See Straight [mp3 zshare]

Don’t forgot to check out their myspace to hear some other fine tunes and buy the album!

White Lies – Death [vimeo]
Pendulum – Hold Your Colour [ mp3 filestube]
Empire of the Sun – Half Mast [mp3 zshare]

**I found that live video for the white lies and decided to post it instead of an mp3 cause I thought it was way worth it. They’re really good live.

Anyways, I think it’s safe to say that we’re trying to shy away from posting youtube videos because they are so unreliable sometimes. On that note: Expect another post as soon as tomorrow!

Can’t help but leave for T

by Joyce on May.07, 2009

This little girl is going to Toronto on a business trip tomorrow and will be returning Sunday night, hence the Thursday post.
But you’re all probably super happy to get your bangers a little early. Destiny is on your side.

My 6 hour trip to Toronto obviously needs a groovin’ playlist and these following songs will DEFINITELY be on it. In fact, they already are.

I posted a song by Empire of the Sun aqwhile ( family guy? no?) ago and I really don’t need to explain why this following tune is a weekend banger. The shazam remix of We Are the People is so amazing. Seriously, just listen.
Original can be listened to here.

MORE MAGIC

DATA- RAPTURE ( PACIFIC REMIX )

LA ROUX – I’M NOT YOUR TOY

Once listening to playlist has been completed just press repeat.

Goodbye ya’ll and hellloooooo Toronto.

Annie where are yoouuuuuu? :(

Let’s get thrilled

Oh Friday, won’t you come just a lil bit faster?

Now, how will we get mellow and ready for the weekend? Well with a brand new banger of course!

I know you’re all excited to see what my suggestion is so I’ll just say it…

This weekend’s jam is Empire of the sun‘s Walking on a dream. It’s kinda calming but makes you want to sing along and groove to it(I’m binging back the word groove).
All in all, a perfect mix for the weekend.

The song comes off of Empire of the sun’s debut album entitled…well it’s called walking on a dream. So I guess it’s easy for you guys to remember it now :) .

That’s it for me,
Asta luego

Also: HI DUNCAN! How’s Europe? Is it like walking on a dream :P ( see what I did there?)
